• Weight: The total weight of the set (two pads, spring clip, split pin) is 24.6 g.
• Package Contents: The package includes two ceramic brake pads, one steel spring clip, and one split pin.

Installation and Maintenance Guidance

For safe and effective braking, proper installation of brake pads is crucial. If you are unsure about the installation process, it is recommended to consult a qualified bicycle mechanic.

After installing new brake pads, a bedding-in procedure is essential to achieve optimal braking performance and pad longevity. This typically involves a series of moderate stops from increasing speeds to allow the pad material to transfer evenly to the brake rotor.

Regularly inspect your brake pads for wear. Replace pads when the friction material is worn down to the wear limit, or if they show signs of contamination (e.g., oil, grease) which can severely reduce braking effectiveness and potentially damage rotors. Ensure all brake caliper bolts are tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque values.
